So does this mean I no longer have to test my website with Windows IE (6!) 7-10 at all ever, under any circumstances? And be able to tell clients that IE11 onwards is all that has to work in IE-land?
- joshschreuder 11y agoYou can tell your clients you only support whatever you want, and they can tell you they won't be a client of yours anymore unless you support what they want.
- robzyb 11y agoIt depends on what type of client / relationship we are talking about. It might go like this: Theodores: I only want to support IE11+ Client: No. What if our users have older browsers? * later * Theodores: I only want to support IE11+ Client: No. What if our users have older browsers? Theodores: That should be exceedingly rare, Microsoft have actually pulled support for those versions recently. See this link. Client: Oh, ok then, great. IE11+ it is.
- partiallypro 11y agoDepends on your client. Currently my company only supports IE9+. I personally only support IE10+, though I'll still throw on a shiv or use modernizer, but I'm not going out of my way. This hasn't cost any business. IE8's stickiness is largely from older business machines or China. For client facing sites in the U.S./E.U., imo the support isn't warranted unless you can point out through analytics that it would alienate a big portion of your audience.
